I had a decent stay at this hotel. It was clean and offered plenty of parking space, plus it’s conveniently located near a variety of eateries. However, the cigarette smell in the room was a bit off-putting, and I found lugging my heavy luggage up the stairs to be a bit of a hassle. Overall, it's a good value for the price, but there are definitely areas that need improvement.
